11. It's The ECONOMY, Stupid!

As previously stated, seniors on Social Security aren't just sitting at home watching TV all day, we actively support the economy!
We use our Social Security to pay our Landlords
Pay Insurances
Pay Retailers
Pay for Groceries
Pay Oil / Gas Companies when we fuel up our cars
Pay our Electric Bills
Pay our Utilities, Water and Heating
We buy products online from Amazon and EBay
and their shippers:
Post Office, UPS, Fed Ex and others
and when the car has a problem we take it to an Automotive Repair Shop or even Dealer.
Cutting Social Security hurts everyone.
It is beyond belief even Republicans would want to hurt all these companies!
